Cherri One - I'll Be Your Hero lyrics

I've been to the Himalayas, and the pyramids at Giz(a) Watched a Bosnian sunrise, that I wished you could have seen I've crossed the Grand Canyon, and the Sahara with ease Felt a Nairobian wind like your soft kiss on my cheek My children have you learned about some of the places I've been Though I was gone for so much of your life, I'm here now to help you to win I'll be your hero, the one that looks out for you I'll be your hero I'll be your hero, the one that will fight for you I'll be your hero I saw Eagles in Saudi, at the heart of a Desert Storm I was just 22 and I didn't have a clue that one day you would all be born I went to the Soviet Union when the Iron Curtain was raised And I got your mom a ring in Germany, she wore for all of our days My children do you understand some of the things that I've done And for the rest of my life, I'll be a dad that's number one I'll be your hero, the one that looks out for you I'll be your hero I'll be your hero, to stand in the gap with you I'll be your hero So if the storm comes and you just need a way through I'll be your Hero On the night of 9-11, at the news of the attack You flew off to the scene of the crime and I didn't know when you'd be back When you went to Afghanistan, I thought maybe we were through But I wanted you to have someone to come back home to And I made it back home to you On a river of darkness, that winds through the sky In a gray metal aircraft, we fly by the night While you are in school, making the grade I think of your faces, may God keep you safe I'll be your hero, the one that looks out for you I'll be your hero, the one that holds the home for you I'll be your hero, the one that will fight for you I'll be your hero, that takes care of the kids for you I'll be your hero, to stand in the gap with you I'll be your hero, we know just what to do If the storm comes and you just need a way through I'll be your hero (x2) And if you just need someone that you can turn too I'll be your hero
